Evening guys,


Hope your all well, I have just found a near zero miles gen 1 s1000rr shock (bronze body). I am getting it modded with new bushes by a lad who done them before. It’s going on my fzs1000 2002 bike with low miles. I know they are meant to bolt straight in but is there anything else I should be looking for when fitting ? I wanted an R6 shock however they were all to much money on top. If the spring on this isn’t up to my weight of 100kg I’ll change it later. I bought it as it was one track day done on it and is pretty much brand new. I would love to know the spring rate on the gen 1 shock anyone ????


Cheers guys keep safe
